441Exiting a session that still has background work running, such as subagents, background shell commands, workflows, or [monitors](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/tools-reference.md#monitor-tool), shows a `Background work is running` dialog instead of quitting immediately. Choose `Move to background and exit` to background the session the same way `/background` does and return to your shell. The option isn't shown when agent view is [turned off](#turn-off-agent-view).
441If you exit a session while some kinds of background work are running, such as subagents or workflows, a `Background work is running` dialog warns that the work stops. Choose `Move to background and exit` to background the session the same way `/background` does and return to your shell. The option isn't shown when agent view is [turned off](#turn-off-agent-view).

443443If a background session on the list already has the conversation's name, Claude Code numbers the new row's name, such as `my-session (2)`, and leaves the existing row's name alone. To rename the new row, select it in agent view and press `Ctrl+R`.
